I'll laugh if LSU figures out a way to embezzle that money and give it to football players.

It seemed at the time it was a headline grab. He invested A LOT of his time campaigning for a potential presidential run

Great news. Between private donations and the ability for Tulane to obtain grants it is a huge win.

But what about the Christmas tree lights?

I can't imagine anyone with any sense spending 700mil on anything in NO. Maybe if its gov money. Private money is not that dumb.

At least Frost Stop doesn't have structural issues. Charity Hospital had foundation problems upon original construction.
You can't do anything interesting with Charity because it has a dense forest of structural columns that can't be relocated. It will have small rooms forever. Fifteen years ago when the City was looking into moving City Hall and civil district court into Charity, they hired a national architect in the field, who said it couldn't be done in a satisfactory way.
There is a lot of nostalgic attachment to Charity, but it should have been demolished after Katrina.

Will they put a Frost Stop in there?
They can call the cafeteria, Frost Stop.
What is your hospital’s cafeteria called?
In my area, the newly rebuilt Lady of the Sea has a place called Seaside Cafe.
Terrebonne General’s cafeteria is called Seasons of the South.
Thibodaux Regional’s cafeteria is plainly called The Cafe at Thibodaux Regional.

Riiight.
How does 2,000 employees for a 1M square foot building seem outlandish?

He is referencing the OLOL foundation embezzlement case.

Ok, thx. Wow. I saw on a documentary that it was ready for opening and a phone call came through at that moment saying it wasn’t allowed to reopen. To this day, Charity is one of biggest tragedies of Katrina. Sad.

30 million is Louisiana tax dollars through LED. 20 million is Orleans tax dollars…..
So we’re paying for a big chunk….

The state is awesome at running shite. But just keep trying the same shite that doesn't work, for decades.
NOLA is disliked by more than just governors, and for good reason.
